Alguspunktile

Alguspunktile is an Estonian grammatical form meaning "to the starting point." It is the allative case form of alguspunkt, a compound noun built from algus "beginning" and punkt "point." The form signals movement toward the starting point or reference to that point as a destination.

In usage, alguspunktile appears in directions, maps, geometry, and programming, wherever a starting position is specified. For example: Liigu alguspunktile. (Move to the starting point.) The English rendering is typically "to the starting point," reflecting its directional meaning.

In mathematical and computer-science contexts, the starting point is often referred to as the origin or start node. When describing actions toward that origin or using it as a reference point, alguspunktile can be employed to indicate movement toward the starting reference.

The term illustrates how Estonian uses case inflections to convey directional meaning in compounds. See also alguspunkt (the starting point) and the allative case in Estonian grammar.
